If you turn this into a big tire stock body pro stock class, you will get the same participation and TV audence that you have now for Pro Stock. Let pro Stock die on the vine. Its a dying class and concept. Just watching bodies with a Chevrolet sticker on it make boring passes down the track is played out.

For all the " Its to dangerous to race on a 9 tire " crowd how many crashes have we had? These cars weigh 3500 pounds and have a long wheelbase. These cars are pretty stable going down the track at 8.30's and 8.10's other than launches with the spinning and long wheelies at times the cars get down pretty regularly on National Event prepped tracks.

If this really comes true, why not run it in XX form and same rules. See how it goes from there. Let the Pro Stock guys run Pro Mod, or adapt, their show is what is dying and not popular enough.

I agree to 16 qualified cars for FS/XX at more National Races First, and see how that goes. If it goes well, maybe have a 32 car field, but Keep It Simple !!!
